Has anyone heard of Ben Hur Trailers? I've found that they were military trailers used behind Jeep's and Deuce and Half. The one I've found is post war made for farm/home. The price is good . Are they close to a IH cub trailer.

This is a picture of one. The one I'm looking at has fenders. The tongue has been replaced and has a 2" ball hitch and the floor looks to have been replaced with a diamond plate sheet.

Russ, here is my trailer. I was told it might be a Ben Hur. Look at the pix of the white trailer in the link you posted. I believe mine is that trailer.

Here is the one in your link

When I first saw my trailer it had the same cross pieces in the bed. The PO had cut most of them out just before I bought it. The reason I think it is the same one is because the guy I bought mine from also owns a Jeep as seen in one of the pix..

It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.- Franklin D. Roosevelt -

Wow Bill small world. That's pretty cool. If yours is a Ben- Hur is it a good trailer, would you recomend owning one to a friend? The one I'm looking at seems in good condition, tires ok, has lights,new tongue and the tail gate is solid. It is painted yellow, will have to splash some 2150 on it and change the wheel color.

That green tractor is the most stripped down tractor there is. It has no starter, No PTO , home made draw bar. Only what it takes to make it run( has mag)It has a broken engine mount on right front so I figured I would never use it for a work horse so painted it on a bet. Even has a home made crank.The hood had been ran over. I straightend it with a 5lb sledge for starters. Doglegs are home made. The chrome exhaust is a piece of sewer pipe.

I have had it at a few shows, the IH people just shake there heads and grin, but it really upsets the JD peopleThis has been a fun tractor.

In all honesty it is probably one of the best running cubs I have now or ever had. Most always starts on first crank no matter how long it has set.
